Organic Booking was founded in 2007 primarily to assist nationally distributed labels with a pending or recent new release in tandem with active investments in radio promotion and publicity. We will provide an agent for-hire for a minimum of six months to assure acts get on the road in coordination with a new release campaign.
We can also be hired to focus on smaller or bigger projects and are willing to discuss the specific needs of your artist and how you could best make use of our services. Packages are also available combined with other Organic departments including radio promotion, tour publicity, and Internet marketing.
We work with labels and acts that make music within the adult album alternative, alt-country, Americana, rock and electronica genre formats.
"Organic offers creative solutions to booking artists in today's market. We
are delighted to have found a boutique US booking partner that mirrors
Wildflower's mission to nurture long term relationships with artists and their representatives."
-Katherine DePaul, President of Wildflower Records

Imaginary Johnny
"If the debut from Imaginary Johnny is any indication of what's to come, Belle and Sebastian best be watching its back. Muffled broadcasts and tweaked out squiggles peg lyrics about instant coffee, tropical rain storms and purple-clad prostitutes... summery ballads flutter past like sweet visions of rose colored icing on a three-tier wedding cake... the commentary on love, loss, and New Orleans never grows tiresome." -MAGNET
